Idle on a spring day with the newest issue of The Southern Review. You can tag along with O Chŏnghŭi for a garden party with South Korean socialites, or follow the ups and downs of the baseball season with Mairead Small Staid. Watch as a young man musters the courage to wrestle a bear in a new story by Steve Trumpeter, or spend some time in contemplation with Emily Fridlund, as she considers a couple in stasis before a fertility procedure. Rebecca Gayle Howell translates three poems from Argentinian poet Claudia Prado detailing family dramas of thieves, murderers, and dreamers, while Danusha Laméris returns to our pages with three poems that explore survival, whether it’s that of a loved one’s death, the lure of the unknown, or a natural disaster. Along with new poems by Lisa Ampleman, David Kirby, and Birch Rosen, this issue features the work of Hmong-Australian artist Vanghoua Anthony Vue, whose large-scale installations aim to reinterpret and retell past narratives of Hmong experiences of war and migration which have been largely overlooked and erased.
